9. Do me a favor,
Please just go post something positive on your candidate. I promise not to come in and snark on her, or you, for that matter.

But first, I will answer your vialed accusation, as best as my feeble, working class mind can, then I'm done.

When JRE was a senator for one term from NC, he was a Dem, from a red state. No, I don't have his voting record memorized, no, I'm not going to get into a "link" war with you. I have em, you have em, we all got links. I will say this, the people that support him are a good group of people, by my working class book.

Friends of the Earth Action - 100,000 members country wide
Iowa Caucus for Priorities - 10,000 members (A Progressive Group)
United Steelworkers - 1.2 Million members

The list goes on to include the SEIU in 12 different states, including Iowa, please don't make me list it all here. Also, several other progressive groups rate John Edwards' one term as a senator in a pretty good light. And let's remember, the Democrats were the minority during Edwards time, they didn't even have the razor thin margin that the Dems have now.

HRC is a Dem, from a very big, very blue state. For that, what have we really gotten, as Progressives? From her, or from Bill Clinton's Administration? Not a lot. And let's face it, a Dem from NY, should be able to get something done.

Now I know your smarter than me, I'm sure you'll write circles around my rough spun words. But this is how I feel, this is how a lot of hard working Americans feel, and you sure as hell are not going to change it with your clever abuses. So go ahead, do your best, then just run along.

I'm trying to have a good god damned Sunday.


Now let's go to work.
